This book was one of my all time favorites that I read in highschool and had to reread it now as an adult. This is definitely one of my favorite classics and recommend highly. The anger you feel about how Tom Robinson is treated is real and are thankful to Atticus for defending him. Scout POV is brilliant as she is a child trying to understand the way of life. Overall an amazing classic!

This is another reread for me and it is still as good and adorable and powerful as I remember. The themes still hold up to this day and Scout Finch is an iconic female character.

"Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.”

Harper Lee’s tale of racism is still a magnificent work, with a steady mixture of wit and darkness.
